Re: CNN sees ratings swoon in April

Poll after poll shows most Americans feel the Mueller report DOES NOT exonerate Trump.

Supposedly, the investigation was to determine if Trump was involved with Russia to influence the election. If Mueller did not find proof of this, by default, he is exonerated. You are either guilty or NOT guilty. There is no limbo!

Re: CNN sees ratings swoon in April

So the Mueller report comes out, and viewership dropped. Maybe people learned what they wanted to know, then moved on. Poll after poll shows most Americans feel the Mueller report DOES NOT exonerate Trump. So, there's that.

Viewership wasn't the only thing that dropped after the Mueller report release - Trump's approval rating dropped 5 points after the Mueller report release, too. That says a lot.

The only thing Fox's numbers show is that the alt-right needs to be spoon-fed their daily hate-filled instructions and talking points.

All this proves is that those on the FAR RIGHT, those that believe in NAZI PHILOSOPHY, those that are WHITE NATIONALIST, those that are XENOPHOBIC NUT JOBS, those that are ANTI-SEMITIC, and those that are RACIST stay home and watch TV a lot and FAUX NEWS is their network of choice.

As you will notice, their viewership did not change at all, thus proving they have that BASE described above and that base is their sole viewership.
